Food Authorities operate a system for prioritising the food hygiene inspections they carry out. At the end of each inspection the business is given a score called a food hazard rating. This reflects (amongst other things) how well the business complies with food law and how much confidence we have in the food operators ability to manage the business safely. The higher hazard rating, the higher the risk and the more often inspections are carried out.
The premises recieves a score in three areas:
Food Hygiene and Safety,
Structure and Cleaning, and
Confidence in Management
The lower the score the better the premises is in terms of legal compliance and the more stars that will be rewarded. Stars are awarded as follows:
Businesses are offered a Trading Standards Compliance Certificate when they are found to be complying with relevant Trading Standards law during an inspection.
During an inspection checks are made to ensure that menu descriptions of food are not misleading, prices are appropriately displayed and that equipment used for serving beer wine and spirits is accurate, along with other checks for legal compliance.

Premises achieve the award by offering a large range of dishes that have a high level of fruits, vegetables and complex carbohydrates and a low level of saturated fat, sugar and salt.
